That stealing copyrighted works would be as illegal for these companies as it is for normal people. Sick and tired of seeing them get away with it.

Because we are losing the class war

It’s always this exact article “on the topic” that gets posted in response. I remember his posts on social networks though.

Just compile everything to webassembly and ship that,using your preferred language and libraries.

Which means that we will get blobs to interact with, instead of JavaScript code that can be “reviewed” or monkey patched away.

Fun times. Thanks, monopolistic assholes like Goggle, Microsoft and Apple.

They sell emergency car lights that you pop up on top of the car ala secret police (but yellow). They have a modem that when activated automatically notifies the road services of you being there stopped.

We are losing the class war.

Tech is a tool. It can be benefitting the oligarchs and restrictive, or benefitting society and open source.

They have been moving things to apps so they can substitute piecemeal the open source OS with their close sources: https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2018/07/googles-iron-grip-on-android-controlling-open-source-by-any-means-necessary/

That article is 12 years old. It has only gotten worse.

How do you opt out for already created content in the past?

Copyright and license laws for you, not for me. This is the biggest theft ever.

Well taken care citizens are more productive (yet can revolt better) https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=rStL7niR7gs

A next generation open source ww2/propeller combat flight sim from the community by the community. Sims (of any type) are a captive market so they are barely what they could be in this day and age. Open source sim and libraries could help in “pulling a Blender” with a next gen engine like Bevy engine.

Bahasa is incredibly simple. It has no articles, genders, time conjugations or adverbs. You just say “I eat yesterday cake” for example

Open source.

Didn’t you leave Lemmy?

He is now slowly trying to buy what rich people normally can’t buy; acceptance and recognition. Don’t fall for it. He keeps doing the same criminal things in parallel. The world would be better without him and people like him.

I wrote it as a tongue in cheek against the OP that said “…I really hope the tech crowd is working on jailbreaking this garbage”.

Surprise surprise, that comment is sitting with 49 upvotes 1 downvote, mine that you admonish is on 27 upvotes 13 downvotes.

This kind of proves the point. The “tech crowd” doesn’t owe you anything. [email protected], you don’t know how much of my personal and professional life I have spent fully on open source.

Get up your feet and talk with your family, representatitives. Legislate this shit away. Nobody accepts food products that dont have a recipe or with unknown ingredients. Nobody accepts engineering projects without plans. Demand open source and interoperability.

We try. We also pivot to open source to try and regain control because it’s the only way. We even share our passions with those who ask.

You folks just roll your eyes and put more money on their hands.

I just setup an old friend couple new computer with Windows. We lost a full day as the HP printer didn’t work (yet worked via Android and my linux laptop without installing absolutely anything), Outlook doesn’t save passwords (so we moved to Thunderbird), chrome is a mess (so we moved to Firefox + unlock origin), Microsoft excel is incredibly expensive and refused to open the only spreadsheet they needed (so me moved to libreoffice)…

A fucking nightmare. And everything worked fine with FOSS or on my laptop.

Just stay away from nvidia on Linux and you are golden.
